Organic SEO — How Dense Are You?

by Steve Fawcett

Relax, I’m not questioning your brainpower. When it comes to organic SEO ‘How dense are you’ isn’t an insult, it’s a it’s a crucial measurement of how effective your site will be in search. There are lots of SEO copywriting services will insert your keywords or keyword phrases into the copy on your web site, and then bill you handsomely for organic SEO optimization. Jump ahead a few months, and there you are holding a site with no web lift – and your so-called SEO copywriting service is strangely absent.

Keyword density is half science and half art. It means incorporating not only the most effective keywords into your web pages, but at the most effective ratio of static content to new content. Every page of every website is different. There are formulas, but they change depending on the word count in your content, tags and meta tags.

An SEO guru I know likes to say that SEO density is a range. Still, we need to fall into that range. Too few keywords and you’ve missed the mark, wasted your money, and wasted time.

Having too many keywords may even be worse. You get pinged by Google indexing for what they call ‘keyword stuffing’. That can set your organic SEO effortsback a long way.

Whether your site is plagued by too few keywords or too many, the trouble with a lot of SEO copywriting is that when you finally find out it’s not working, you’ve lost months of valuable time. You lose traffic to your site, new customers and the sales that go with them.

There are lots of easy to use tools for measuring the density of the keywords on each page of your site. A great place to start is with the SEO Quake plug-in for Firefox.

Most organic SEO copywriting services rely on the more logical left side of their brain. A few rebels lean more on their right brain, the creative side. I’d bet my Organic SEO budget on the creative right-brained thinkers any day – the best will put effective keywords into content that jumps off the page, gets your clients attention and sells. But you’d better make sure they know their density.

Which brings me around to my original question: how dense are you? Does your website have the best length of content – with the best keywords for your service or product – inserted at a density level that gives you the page rank you’re looking for? If not — how dense are you?

I am such an idiot – I can’t even make a simple website!

by Kristin Thormar

Has this thought ever gone through your head? You see all those beautiful websites online, and deep down you know that you will never be able to create your own website like that.

But how wrong you are! Even you can create a web site! Everybody is able to create a beautiful website, if they are tought how to do it step by step.

The fact is, that all those beautiful web sites you see on the internet, were made by people who have lots of knowledge about creating web sites.

That simply means that in the beginning, they had absolutely no experience in creating websites, just like you. But they started somehow, probably with a simple website, published it on the internet, and started making money with it.

As time went by and they learned more, they realized that making quality websites is extremely important, but realizing that most likely took them quite a while.

The key to success in internet marketing is creating your own website, with your own domain name, completely controlled by you, don’t let anybody try to convince you it isn’t.

However, there are many vital things you have to know, things that will probably scare you from even trying to create your own website, if you don’t learn them.

Things, such as why do I need my own domain name, what is web hosting, what is a web editor, what is ftp, how do I create a clickable link, are common questions asked by people who want to create and publish their own websites.

The thing is, that you need to start somewhere. You need to learn how to create a simple website, and publish it on the net, and then you need to learn how to bring traffic to it. That is not the focus of this article, but I can show you that later if you want.

Eliminating The Irritating Flaws To Create The Best Designed Websites

by Stephanie Dawson

They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but there are some things that are universally agreed upon. When designing a website there definitely limitations on what is considered attractive and irritating.

As a website designer, there is a certain responsibility that you must accept. Many customers have there own ideas as to what kind of website look that they are seeking. Your job as a professional web designer is to be able to take their ideas and give them sound advice to avoid creating an irritating website.

Some of you may not be sure what I am talking about when I refer to irritating, so I have compile a list to explain further.

Annoying Pop Ups:

Many people say that pop ups have actually increase their sales, but I cant imagine how when everyone I know hates them. Pop ups are especially annoying when you are in a hurry.

Loud Flash Presentations:

Flash intros are really dramatic and when used correctly can really grab a potential customers attention. My issues with flash presentations stems from the ones that are too loud and do not have an option of eliminating the sound. You should always leave the choice to the customer of whether or not they want to listen to the music.

Light Colored Fonts With A Similar Background:

Using a white text on a light background is definitely extremely annoying. You should not have to squint in order to read the content of a website.

Fonts That Are Too Big:

Big fonts are unattractive because they give the feel of being in preschool. No one likes words that jump out of the page. It is a sure fire way to drive away your visitors.

To Much Info On One Page:

A website that is full of content is wonderful, but there are ways to organize your content so that it is uniformed. Placing too many navigation choices in one page seems a little too confusing for my taste. The use of a drop down menu can do wonders in that situation.

Creating quality web designs takes a lot of consideration. You must take into account what your targeted visitors may or may not like. In the end, the best designed websites are the ones that are moderate and incorporate everyone.

Surprisingly enough, many people aren’t aware of the fact that network marketing requires a budget just as any other business venture would.

The title or the headline of a good web design must also be able to stop visitors to your website in their tracks.

The most important component of creating a quality web design is hiring a professional website designer. A professional designer will be able to take your ideas and bring them to life as well as provide their expertise.
